The Volkswagen TV campaign featuring a parade of supposedly rival car dealers saying, “. just like a Golf,” became perhaps one of the more ironic advertisements on TV this year.
Hubris like this was certainly leading with the chin.
But notwithstanding some recent tarnishing to the badge, the VW Golf is a very good drive.
So nicely balanced in fact that it should be on every keen driver’s must-drive ‘long list’. In this, it sits ...

Hot electric Volkswagen Golf GTE revealed
5 March 2014
Volkswagen’s petrol-electric plug-in hybrid Golf will take a new GTE model nomenclature into production.
Revealed at the Geneva motor show. the Golf GTE is the second dedicated petrol-electric plug-in hybrid model from the German car maker, following on from the limited volume XL1 launched in 2013.
The GTE tag has been chosen to reflect what Volkswagen describes as the sporting qualities of the new five-door hatchback, which has been styled in a similar fashion to the existing Golf GTI and GTD .
Power comes from a transversely mounted 1.4-litre four-cylinder direct-injection petrol engine and synchronous electric motor sited within ...

2014 VW Golf GTE review
This is the new Golf GTE, the first mass-produced plug-in hybrid Volkswagen.
When it goes on sale in the UK in August it will join a suite of Golfs with alternative power sources. Alongside the traditional petrol and diesel engines, you’ll also be able to buy a full electric version, and models powered by compressed natural gas or ethanol.
The GTE is the most complex, however. Like every other plug-in hybrid it’s powered by two engines: there’s the familiar VW 148bhp 1.4-litre turbo petrol engine, combined with a battery-powered electric motor, all going through a six-speed double-clutch automatic gearbox. This alliance is good for 201bhp; by comparison ...

Ten Favorite Volkswagen Golfs (That Aren’t GTIs)
Can the Golf outlive the Beetle? When the former formally debuted in 1975, few thought Volkswagen’s all-new compact offering could outlive the legendary Bug, but it seems as if model longevity runs in the family. Volkswagen’s in the process of launching its seventh-generation Golf. so we’ve decided to look back and round up a few of our favorite Golfs that aren’t GTIs.
1. 1955 Volkswagen EA 48 Prototype
No, this technically isn’t a Golf, but it’s perhaps the first Volkswagen design to foreshadow the Golf’s basic formula – and it did so twenty years before the Golf’s introduction. While VW was busy cranking out ...

Introducing the Twincharger
April 2006
Real men don’t drive cars with 1.4-litre engines — do they? Well, it depends. Forget about engine size, and consider instead a VW Golf with 168bhp and a torque curve whose peak of 177lb ft is more of a plateau, all the way from 1750 to 4500rpm. The result is a maximum speed of 136mph, and 0-62mph acceleration in 7.9sec. Does that sound interesting? Does it sound possible, even, with a Polo-sized 1390cc engine?
Everything is possible with pressure-charging. The grey-haired among us remember Formula 1 cars with 1.5-litre turbo engines that delivered over 1000bhp in qualifying ‘grenade’ tune. So 168 from 1.4 litres isn’t ...
